Why smart candles?
At Hestia’s Candle Co. our candles do more than smell amazing, — they hold memories. We’ve integrated a special feature for you to personalize your them: a hidden NFC tag that links to a photo, message, or even a video of your choice, combining the warmth of real candlelight with the power of memory.
How It Works
On every product, you’ll see the option to upload your file (Photo or video) for an additional $5.
- If you choose a vessel candle, the NFC chip will be embedded in the label.
- For pillar candles, the chip will be placed on a tag hanging from the wick — or on a keepsake card for an extra special touch.
Steps to Reveal your memory
- Unlock your phone.
- Hold the top of your phone (near the front camera) close to the candle’s label to activate the NFC chip.
- A notification will pop up at the top of the screen.
- Tap the notification to open your memory.
- Tap again anytime to revisit your stored content.
Note: Most iPhones read NFC automatically when tapped. On Android devices, you may need to enable NFC in your settings before tapping.
This feature is perfect for gifting on any occasion, and as keepsakes for weddings, memorials, and special moments — a candle that lights up memories as well as your space.
